Amazing Find

We just stopped at a Zaxby's for dinner on our way home from Hilton Head Island, after we failed to find the barbeque joint we were looking for. After dinner, while waiting for the lads to use the restroom, I inspected the many wall decorations. As I looked closely at one print, I spotted a familiar building out of the corner of my eye.

This print is the old Lost Mountain grocery store on the nearest main intersection to our house. We are about three hours away from home, in Metter, and definitely not anywhere we would expect to see such a local, non-famous landmark (which is now a small bank, by the way). But the building still looks the same, and the gas pump is still out front.

This painting is signed by John Zed King, so we might like to find out more about him.
